Health

Modern Science and today’s Medical Community agree that Diet is a primary contributor to our 3 most prevalent chronic diseases – Cancer, Heart Disease and Diabetes.

Significantly, the purpose of the food in the grocery store is grown to sell not to nourish. It is designed to grow faster, prettier, and cheaper in this profit first system.

Produce: Studies suggest that much of our produce has lost 50% of its nutritional content over the past 50 years.  In today’s environment, 95% of the food on your grocery store shelves is grown with chemical fertilizers, harsh pesticides and potentially dangerous herbicides.

Processed Food: Over 70% of the American diet is made up of processed food that has minimal nutritional content, although high in filler, calories, and sugars. 95% of all processed food contains potentially dangerous GMO’s (Genetically Modified Organisms). 

Dietary Based Illnesses: Heart Disease, Cancer, and Diabetes are the three most prevalent diseases we face as a nationLearning to support and nourish our immune system can keep these chronic diseases at bay. Clean, local, fresh food is a great way to start boosting your immune system.

Even with the use of these drugs we are still faced with epidemic levels of chronic disease.

  • 60% of us will develop Heart Disease
  • 41% will develop Cancer
  • 33% (and growing) will develop Diabetes
  • Two- thirds are overweight

Is the food of today the same food of our grandparents or great grandparents?

Nutritional content is  easy to look past due to today’s modern environment where 95% of the food on your grocery store shelves is grown with chemical fertilizers, harsh pesticides and potentially dangerous herbicides.

Much of it looks like food but in reality, it is a corn  syrup, nutritionally void, calorie rich imposter. We have been marketed and brainwashed only to look at the package & convenience and not the content.

An Aquaponic System is the foundation for clean food and health

If diet can cause, then diet can cure or prevent. These diseases can be significantly treated with the food we grow. Growing your food ensures that you know and control all of the inputs and provides a much healthier food source than today’s store alternatives.

Aquaponics plays many vital roles in this health scenario and can be the foundation, of providing nutritionally dense food for you and your family.

  • Organic, Non-GMO
  • Fresh, Quality Produce
  • Harvest At Peak Ripeness & Nutritional Content

Quality & Taste

When you harvest produce from your aquaponics system, you are getting food at its most nutritious time. It can be picked and consumed within minutes or hours.

Produce begins to lose its nutritional content instantly upon harvest. Today’s grocers “fresh” produce travels an average of 1500 miles from field to plate and has lost much of its nutrition.

Also, many fruits and vegetables are harvested before they are fully ripe so they won’t spoil during the long journey to the store.

Becoming food independent using natural and sustainable methods not only provides your family the calories it requires to live but it also provides them the nutrition to thrive.

Plus, your Aquaponics System produces Fish. Can a garden do that? When you compare aquaponics to the best of the best gardening/growing methods, aquaponics (pardon the pun) floats to the top.

Space & Simplicity

Aquaponic food production requires little space, no soil, no tiller, no tractor, no fuel, no harsh chemical fertilizers, no dangerous herbicides or pesticides, no watering and maybe best of all no weeding.

Growing Your Own Food Aquaponics Style:

  • No Land to Purchase
  • Outdoor
  • Indoor with Lighting
  • Year Round Within A Greenhouse
  • Movable
  • No Gardening Tools Required
  • Maybe Best of All- No Weeding

Sustainable Production

Our Backyard Systems use less Energy than a 60 Watt Lightbulb

Our Systems require no fuel, and the systems are 100% electrically based. But don’t worry, our backyard systems use less than a 60 Watt Lightbulb. If that’s too much for you, they easily convert to solar, wind or hydroelectric power.

Our Systems use 90% to 95% LESS water than conventional in ground growing methods. The small amount of water it uses goes directly into the plants or evaporates, which helps to relieve the pains of contaminated water, water shortages and droughts.

Aquaponic plants are more productive and faster growing than their soil based counterparts. 100% of the energy used by a plant in an SRS™ Aquaponic System goes into plant production. Learn more here.

 

  • Requires No Fuel
  • 100% Electric Based w/ Alternative Power Options like Solar, Wind, Hydro
  • Uses 90-95% Less Water
  • 100% of the Energy Used by the Plant Goes into Production
  • Sustainable Systems for Sustainable Growing
